I can offer a 75 amp alternator on an exchange basis. This is professionally rebuilt using new bearings, diodes, and windings on an original core. This is a substantial upgrade from the stock 50 amp original. Because it uses an original core there will be no fitment problems. You will likely want to contact Jeff Bowlsby and get a new harness. With a 50% increase in current, the old wire may not take too kindly to the upgrade.

These are refurbed 50 amp original units. For a few dollars more you get a big output increase. The original units were sized to run what came with the car, nothing else. To run high power stereos or lights you need a bigger alternator. I think you should consider upgraded wiring, at least from the alternator to the starter, so talk to Jeff Bowlsby. All the old harnesses I have are useless and must be replaced. I must assume most harnesses are in similar shape.
